Crispy Ricotta Gnocchi with Garlicky Spinach and Burst Cherry Tomatoes
Savor tender homemade ricotta gnocchi with a light, crispy exterior, perfectly paired with garlicky sautéed spinach and sweet burst cherry tomatoes. This dish delivers a comforting balance of creamy, savory, and fresh flavors in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup Part-skim Ricotta (180g)
1 Large Egg (50g)
1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour (30g)
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese (28g)
2 cups Fresh Spinach (60g)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (75g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta, egg, and all-purpose flour. Mix until a smooth dough forms, then gently fold in the grated Parmesan. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Lightly flour a working surface and shape the dough into small gnocchi pieces, about 1 inch in size. Press each piece with a fork to create ridges for crispiness.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they begin to float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove them and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the burst cherry tomatoes and cook gently until their skins begin to blister, about 2 minutes.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet, stirring until just wilted. Season with salt and pepper, then gently fold in the cooked gnocchi.
Increase the heat slightly and allow the gnocchi to crisp up on the bottom, about 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately, enjoying the contrast of crispy edges with tender interior and fresh vegetables.
